[96448] Trump reports record oil transit in the Strait of Hormuz and declares a positive trend in the markets
Former US President Donald Trump points to a historic peak in oil traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, and claims that the drop in energy prices is making the world safer.
Record in oil traffic in the Strait of Hormuz: Donald Trump presents optimistic data
During the last 24 hours, many media outlets reported new data presented by former US President Donald Trump, concerning the global energy market. According to the reports, Trump claims that 19 million barrels of oil passed through the Strait of Hormuz yesterday, a figure that he says constitutes an "all-time record."
The report was widely cited in several Israeli Telegram channels:
- Abu Ali Express channel, known for a critical stance toward Iran and the Ayatollah regime, noted that "oil prices are plummeting, and the world is a much safer place."
- Yinon Magal (YINONEWS), identified with right-wing positions and sympathy for Trump, reported the figure as a raw fact without further commentary.
- Asaf Rosenzweig (News from the Big World) relayed the data while using emojis that emphasize the American-Iranian context.
- Ziv Rubinstein - Until the war ends emphasized that alongside the economic figure, this is an improvement in global security.
- Zirat HaHadashot (The News Arena) provided a concise report on Trump's remarks.
The reports reflect a narrative in which Trump presents his activity or his perception as a stabilizing factor in the energy market, while the reporting sources, mostly identified with right-wing positions in Israel, emphasize the connection between the decline in oil prices and the strengthening of global security, while presenting a negative stance toward Tehran.
